- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 tsp black pepper

- Mix the Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and well blended.
- Add the Flavors: Fold in the crumbled blue cheese, bacon, green onions, garlic, black pepper, and smoked paprika (if using). Mix until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Chill the Dip: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dip for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprinkle of green onions and extra crumbled bacon, if desired. Serve with your favorite dippers, such as crackers, chips, or fresh veggies like celery and carrots.
